The Year of Goldilocks Anaesthesia and Day Case Procedures
Don’t be fooled by the catchy sound bite – Goldilocks Anaesthesia is proving a truly revolutionary reform of anaesthesia. It bases itself on providing just the right amount of anaesthetic to each patient – and this 'not too much or too little' approach allows patients to undergo procedures without pain, in greater safety and without the usual ‘anaesthetic hangover’ which often includes nausea or sickness.

Summary
- "Goldilocks anaesthesia" means giving each patient just the right amount of anaesthetic.
- The aim is surgery without pain and without the usual sickness and grogginess afterwards.
- In 2017 more patients at The Karri Clinic chose day case surgery, including facelifts.
Apparently, we’re all about ‘getting over, going under’ – and 2017 saw a significant increase in our number of day cases at The Karri Clinic, with more patients opting for the likes of facial rejuvenation including facelifts under this sort of anaesthetic. If you would like to discuss the day case procedures available at The Karri Clinic, or to book a consultation with Mr Karri, then simply call us direct on 01709 464 200 or submit a form via the website, here.
